So which world(server) is the worst?

[ElianaGoldstein]

You shall never believe any rumors, unless you have seen or experienced them yourself

In my case, a lot of EU players say that Louisoix (Chaos DC) is one of the worst servers and feel glad that they moved away from there. I am on Louisoix since the Server was opened and never ever had a nightmarish experience like those players reported. And I am online daily, even run my stuff with randoms - all the time. In terms of hardcore players, that might be true that you probably won't be served well here, but it is still not by far as bad as everyone says.

Same with the following claim: "Chaos will be the french data center".
Yes, it is true that a bunch of french players are bad, but so are some english and german speaking players - and usually it is not those bad frenchies that make a run worse, but those who can not stop complaining, refuse to stop healing/tanking and/or leave the dungeon just like that. And truth to be told, I had better and more positive experiences with Chaos DC players than Light DC players, despite them always stating the opposite.

Louisoix isn't so bad really, there's still available houses in most zones and dungeon queues are usually pretty fast. However anyone thinking of moving here be warned. Our economy is completely screwed up. You either have items saturated by bots with multiple stacks of 99 dirt cheap, or you have to pay at least double what an item costs on Omega when it comes to glamour and crafted stuff. Trying to get that single gemstone or lump of wood is almost impossible as it's either flooded with big stacks with perhaps a single item that costs more than a stack of 99 or there's 1-5 stacks of 20-99 at ridiculously high prices. Many times while levelling my crafters I have found myself screaming at the screen when I check marketboard for the one item I can't seem to get to drop or can't craft yet. The flip side of this is that it is quite easy to save up for a house but with one caveat. Pretty much anything you decide to sell will suddenly have 20 people come out of the woodwork and undercut it to worthlessness if it hasn't sold within a few minutes.

With this statement, you're entirely correct, our economy is pretty messed up. However - you will always find at least one stack of an item, especially true for HQ armors and weapons (non-capped, eg. between lvl 60-70) with a reasonable price. I have an alt on Shiva and got the problem that a lot of stuff were either not available or waay to overpriced. So I guess in terms of that, Louisoix can be very handy for newcomers, also because they can save up and afford a house rather fast and without fighting over vacant plots - just like you said.

Also, I rarly had any problems selling stuff on the marketboard. Even if you have not the best price/value, people will eventually buy your items - even for unpopular ones like the ARR relic materials XD If you want to get lots of money, I figure rare seeds (gardening), lvl 6 crit/dh materia and minions do quite well on our server.
